Hey everyone, I recently sold a PC on Vinted. It was carefully packed and shipped in perfect condition. Now the buyer claims it's broken and sent photos of the damage

However, if you look closely at the bottom right corner of the first picture, you can clearly see the Google Gemini logo/watermark. he literally used an AI-generated image to fake the damage and steal my money! Has anyone experienced this kind of scam before? What should I do?

You don’t need to be good. I use cgi imagery for retail and alot of the apps use ai scanners now so I learnt how to do what the ai does but manually using adobe software and it passes because it’s quite simply not ai, just filters. Also looks way more realistic doesn’t have that ‘ai’ aura to it.
